The First-Year Program FYP is simply a way of referring to the first-year of college life--both inside and outside of class Top schools in the nation have long realized that the first year is critical for building a strong foundation for success Some of these schools appoint a dean to coordinate the first-year experience For example Harvard University has a Dean of Freshman and Notre Dame University has a Dean of the First Year of Studies At ACU the Dean of The First-Year Program is responsible for coordinating the learning and development of first-year students
ACUs FYP emphasizes the total development of students--spiritual intellectual social emotional physical and vocational We are dedicated to helping students grow to their fullest potential beginning at their unique stage of development upon entry to ACU Whether under-prepared for college or an accelerated learner we believe the mind and heart of each student will be strengthened as a result of the ACU educational experience | | |
